SWIM has noticed that while he is spun, crumbs and small chunks of (what he thinks is) meth cover his carpet.

This causes him to compulsively pick at the floor, finding these little chunks and piling them up to crush. SWIM found himself scavenging his carpet for hours, thinking that this task would be productive.

After thoroughly scoping out his entire floor, SWIM proceeded to crushing up the foul collection he believed to be meth. Up his nose and down into a drip, goes the various tastes of solidified laundry detergent, pieces of dried deodorant, baking soda, old food, glass (literally) and whatever else could possibly wind up on someones floor. Although the strange taste didn't occur to him as bad at that moment in time, he soon realized there was no possible way for pieces of meth to end up where SWIM found them. Despite this fact, he somehow ended up continuing to search his floor no matter how many times he told himself that there were NO real crumbs.

Has SWIY experienced anything similar to this?

because he/she posted valid thought that most can relate to

I can relate. Doing pointless stuff on amphetamines is normal.

I can relate! This is one of my favourite threads on the Meth forum, hilarious replies. Classic!

SWIV knows this all too well, Nothing to be that ashamed of really, honestly swim does it just to kill time when he coming down.

SWIV heard this from a forum member and thought it was hilarious:

"Next time, take a pinch of crystal and toss it behind your shoulder, that way you will actually have something to find!"

lol good idea, but SWIV could never bring himself to do it!

SWIV personally found the best way to keep ur eyes off the carpet is being very careful not to drop a single crumb, keep track of every little spec of meth you take out of your bag, that way you know theres nothing to look for. Unless you enjoy looking for it, as swim does sometimes.

Old hippy, if you cant post nicely, don't post at all. SWIV couldn't help but feel ur comment was rude and insulting. In your defense, SWIV's carpet was always nasty.

EDIT: to the op, usually the only thing SWIV actually finds are old pieces of sugar and such, rarely is it good crystal.

LOL funny to find others do this as well. SWIM figured as much. Because of this, though, SWIM is very meticulous to do his best to get everything prepped while he's feeling straight, such as burning down a big bowl, so that he doesn't shake too much and lose some stash. That will prevent the "crackhead crawl" that is liable to happen later.

Also, SWIM will also make sure to do his meth (or whatever drug) on a surface that has been cleaned and spaced out well so that if for some reason some stash did spill or fall, he knows it will definitely be meth and not deodorant flakes or some other bunk. It's easier to tell yourself that the specs on the carpet aren't meth when you've gotten everything prepped so that there's no way to mistake it for such.

novel idea, get high and clean your house, instead of using a flashlight and on all fours , spun

Most tweakers, cowboy included, have done this. Implying that once one is down on all fours, looking for some mysterious dope that somehow flew to the other side of the room, he or she will see the terrible condition his carpet is in. And being the responsible tweaker that he or she is, would promptly get out the Hoover(if they haven't hocked it off to buy dope) and vacuum the carpet.
The plus side to this is a clean carpet. The negative is smoking/snorting/ shooting strange objects that one has found.

Fair enough! In fact, SWIY sounds a lot like SWIM. lol Sometimes SWIM would look for crystal on the first floor of his house when he only smoked anything in his bedroom waaaaaay upstairs. Kinda insanity if you ask me.

Don't tell me you came up with ur signature all by yourself?... lol very funny. I love peppers!

I know this sounds mean and what not, but cowboy and his late father in law always played tricks on fellow tweakers. Placing fake microphones in obvious places for the paranoid ones, crumbed up sheet rock on the floor for the hard core smokers, etc. He was the one that taught old cowboy the motto: Do the dope, don't let the dope do you.

Interesting thing today - since having read this post, SWIM did something today when he got his supply and was separating out baggies for easier consumption (an explanation and story in and of itself).

SWIM was transferring to the other bag and spilled a bit. Now, he spilled on a spot where it was decently easy to tell where everything was but it was on fabric (not on the floor, but on his black sweat pants). SWIM wasn't spun or high on anything yet for the day, but decided that picking up little flakes just wasn't worth it especially because he couldn't be 100% sure that ALL of the flakes were meth.

So, SWIM picked up all the big pieces, and got what he could off his leg (that required little effort). After that, he got a couple of other little pieces but reached a point where it was more trouble than it was worth. Also, being that SWIM has a decent amount of supply for the next while, he decided to just brush it all off and not worry about the remaining little flakes.

Now, ask SWIM in a few weeks/months or whenever when his supply is gone if he regrets having done that and he might say "yes". But right now, while although SWIM is upset that he spilled anything at all, he is fairly content that he didn't load it all into the baggie with the risk of it being something other than meth.

I think that mentality is a LOT harder to have, though, if you don't have much supply on hand (or access to it). If SWIM's supply had been to the last few bowls, he might have spent a lot of time grabbing the crumbs, spun or not.

The other day, SWIM was crushing up meth to snort inside of a car.
While this was happening, a piece went flying out of the container being used.
SWIM searched around this car FOREVER for that one piece.

i'm mexican so this might not make sense to all. I'v done the rockcrawl--the meth 'it was there' ... you name its been done. Any how most the stuff thats been found and put in a pipe has ben tortias.....yes thats true very little stuff a lot of totias

Anyone seen Scanner Darkly or even better read the amphetamine induced Philip K Dick book?SWIM once as a student got convinced that there was cannabis resin on the floor (only smoking the herb). SWIM searched and collected bits of black stuff,stones,fluff etc; skinned it all up (there was quite a lot) took a deep drag on the 'joint' only to immediately feel sick and had to race to toilet to throw up!
Needless to say it put SWIM off smoking floor related products for life

haha true, but SWIM doesnt search his carpet though. if swiy is picking up random shit off the ground to smoke its time to chill out a bit. nothing wrong with swimmers having some fun, swim just thinks some swimmers go too far. swim has nothing wrong with people who get high, and he himself would join you. but swim has shit to do while he's tweaked, there is no time for searching carpets... and when he comes down he's ready for a break, not searching for more...

I dont think anyone picks random stuff off the floor to smoke just for the hell of it.

Usually they think its meth then find it that its not when they smoke it. SWIV would never intentionally put random shit in his pipe, some shit takes forever to get that nasty shit outa there once you melt it.

You can easily drop a $10 piece of meth on the carpet and not notice, enough to get one high even. If you wanna look for meth on the carpet go for it, get ur bang for the buck, why not... Can you think of anything worse than coming down?

haha SWIM remembers this all to well. when SWIM would get really spun every little white speck on the floor looked like a shard. SWIM noticed this the most tho when he would come down. once or twice SWIM did try that 'throw a shard over your shoulder' technique so he could trip out his fellow tweakers when he actually 'found' a shard on the floor. haha good times.

Exactly, SWIV has shit to do while hes high too, but he cant do that id he ISNT high, so searching the carpets his best bet.

SWIM has lost many valuable shards while attempting to crush them.
I guess this is what drives him to search, even though he usually finds way more shard (or what he thinks is shard) then he actually lost.

SWIM has experienced this SEVERAL times. Its a disgusting and unproductive activity that drives him absolutely insane. Deep down he knows it isnt meth but hes willing to believe it and try it cuz hes a drug addict.
